Registered outcomes3
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Cognitive Reappraisal Capacity (Picture-Rating Task) | Baseline (before the intervention), mid-treatment (after 4 weeks of intervention), and post-treatment (upon completion of the 8-week intervention). | Cognitive reappraisal capacity was assessed using a computerized picture-rating task programmed in E-Prime 3.0, utilizing 40 negative images selected from the Chinese Affective Picture System. The task consisted of two parts: "rating after viewing" and "rating after cognitive reappraisal." In the "rating after viewing" part, participants rated their emotional response to 20 randomly assigned images. In the "rating after cognitive reappraisal" part, participants were instructed to provide positive interpretations of the depicted persons or scenarios for the remaining 20 images before rating their emotional response. Ratings were made on a 9-point scale ranging from 1 (minimal negative emotion) to 9 (strongest negative emotion). For subsequent administrations (mid- and post-treatment), half of the images were replaced with new ones, while both groups viewed the same image sets at each time point. |
| Secondary | Implicit Violent Attitudes (Implicit Association Test) | Baseline (0-week), mid-treatment (4-week), and post-treatment (8-week). | Implicit violent attitudes were measured using the Implicit Association Test (IAT) programmed in E-Prime 3.0, comprising two types of implicit word associations: "self-violence" and "violence-positive." The "self-violence" IAT assessed automatic associations between self-concept and violence by measuring reaction times when pairing self-related words with violence-related attributes, while the "violence-positive" IAT evaluated implicit attitudes toward violence by measuring association speeds between violence-related words and valenced attributes. The test included four critical blocks: block 4 (violence-self + peace-others pairing), block 7 (violence-others + peace-self pairing), block 11 (positive-defend + negative-attack pairing), and block 14 (positive-attack + negative-defend pairing). The "self-violence" IAT effect was calculated by subtracting the mean RT of Block 4 from Block 7, and the "violence-positive" IAT effect by subtracting Block 11's mean RT from Block 14's. |
| Secondary | Mood States (Visual Analogue Mood Scale, VAMS) | Baseline (0-week), mid-treatment (4-week), and post-treatment (8-week). | Mood states were assessed using the Visual Analogue Mood Scale (VAMS), programmed using NET 8.0, which consists of 18 items across four dimensions: somatic state, psychosomatic state, emotional state, and extraversion. Each item presents a pair of antonymous adjectives, and participants rated their current state by clicking on a 100-point continuum between the two descriptors (e.g., 1 = "extremely drowsy" to 100 = "extremely alert"). The scale includes 13 forward-scored and 5 reverse-scored items, with higher composite scores indicating greater positivity in each respective dimension. |
